1. A method for measuring eccentricity of a molding lens comprising steps of:
manufacture a lens mould and present projecting parts concentric with optical surfaces on an area outside the optical surfaces of a front plane and a rear plane of the lens mould;
produce lens by the lens mould so that indentations concentric with the optical surfaces are respectively formed on the front plane and the rear plane;
use a microscopic measuring device to observe and measure the indentations as well as lens periphery;
use the indentations and lens periphery to measure eccentricity of the optical surface of the lens.
